“In the end, everything comes together perfectly. World music for the advanced listener.”

“Calexico, Fanfare Ciocarlia, Beirut – how great isn’t world-indie! These Swedes
sound both geographically and temporally exotic. “Pan’s Labyrinth” as
an album.”

“[…] and on top of that, K.O.R are very savvy, musically inventive and varied. One notices their love of music in every little detail.

“The Swedes present us with a very exciting album worth risking one’s ear for, while letting the music speak for itself […] the good mood is inevitable.”
• Alternativmusik.de

“Great cover, great band name, great title. Music? Also great […] Gypsy music,
funfair jazz, tango-rock, gothic soul, ragtime swamp, klezmer-punk – the list continues. […] More than twenty instrumentalists can be heard on this work, and one can tell that they’re having fun, playing on this remarkable debut of an appealing swedish outfit.”
• Xaver Magazin (4/6)

“A journey into the exoticism of the 1920s […] A delusional beautiful album, both
dark and enlightening.”
